Dan — Wed, 24 Nov 2010 20:00:09 +0000

Only 2 days ago I reported that the TomTom iPhone 4 car kit adapters were on their way and should be with you within the next two weeks. Well TomTom kindly sent me some early so I thought I show you what you need to know about applying one of these to your $200 car kit. Oh and yes I said some (four to be precise) so if you want one early keep reading. All spares have been claimed.

Accessory review: Kensington Dash Mount

Steve — Tue, 19 Oct 2010 03:43:02 +0000

My iPhone 4 is my car’s best friend. It’s my music source, my hands-free phone, and my GPS unit. But it’s none of these things without a suitable windshield or dashboard mount. After getting through two generic Chinese knock-off windshield mounts that I had gambled on (they were cheap) and lost, I realised it was time to spend some money on a ‘real’ car solution. I ultimately chose the Kensington Dash Mount from MacSense, but how does it stack up? Read More

Free iPhone 4 adaptor for your TomTom car kit

Dan — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 05:45:48 +0000

Not so long ago I posted about how you need to add a piece of velcro to your TomTom car kit if you wanted it to work with your iPhone 4. Well it seems TomTom have decided to respond themselves and instead of making you fork out for a new iPhone 4 car kit they are giving away a free adapter to make your current kit work with your new iPhone 4 without the need for the Velcro.

Dan — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 01:00:36 +0000

Why are we looking at the TomTom Car Kit after all this time?

Either way, there are things you need to be aware of and you’ll want to watch the video after the break which will guide you on setting-up the TomTom car kit for your iPhone 4. Go on – hit the ‘read more’!

TomTom car kit charging FAIL

I had a friend purchase one from the Tomtom UK website and mail it to me in NZ. Hit the link to read my review of the cradle and find out if it’s worth the cash!
